Kinus Hashluchim Makes Schedule Changes To Allow Israeli Shluchim To Join Virtually
by CrownHeights.info
With the intent to allow the Shluchim of Eretz Yisroel the ability to join the International Kinus Hashluchim while remaining with their Shlichus, some schedule changes have been made to the Kinus Hashluchim Program.
“All of us are intensely engaged in assisting our brother and sisters in Eretz Yisroel in various ways including Torah, Tefilah and Tzedakah – and most of all through actions of support for those who have been most affected by this terrible tragedy,” the Vaad Hakinus wrote. “In light of these consequential events, the Vaad HaKinus has been working intensely to re-make the Kinus program so that it would better reflect what world Jewry is experiencing.”
To fit with re-make, the annual banquet will now incorporate strong elements of Chizuk for the Shluchim, their communities and indeed all the Jews of Artzeinu HaKedosha. In order to ensure their participation, the Vaad Hakinus has moved the time of the banquet due to the time difference between the US and Israel, making the banquet a lunch-time event with the program starting at 1:00PM EST sharp.
Please note some more Kinus program changes:
- So to include the Shluchim in Eretz Yisroel, the Krias HaPan at the Ohel on Friday will begin promptly at 8:00AM EST with the customary Hachono program taking place at a different time.
- All Sunday workshops will be moved to either Thursday or Friday.
- The Chabad Partners Conference will no longer be taking place this year.
